Comparison: Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance vs. Michelin Primacy 3 vs. Pirelli Cinturato (C3) vs. GoodYear Efficientgrip Performance 2

Today, we will compare two summer tyre models: the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance and the Michelin Primacy 3. Both models are highly rated and produced by reputable manufacturers.


The Efficient Grip Performance is a model from Goodyear, a leading tyre brand known for its innovative designs. This model achieved an overall rating of 43% on our site. However, it should be noted that this tyre has been replaced by the Efficient Grip Performance 2, which offers enhanced features.


On the other side, we have the Primacy 3 from Michelin, another leading tyre company. Despite our system displaying a 0% rating, user feedback and test results relay a different narrative. This Michelin model has been replaced by the Primacy 4.


Now, let's compare how these tyres performed in various tests. In the ADAC test conducted, out of 16 models, Michelin Primacy 3 secured the first position, while Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance ended up at the 12th place. The scenario was somewhat similar in the Autozeitung test, where the Primacy 3 again clinched the top spot, but this time, the Efficient Grip Performance took the third place out of 10 tyres. The tables turned at the Autobild test, where the Efficient Grip Performance ranked fifth out of 50 models, while the Primacy 3 slightly lagged behind at the 10th place.


In summary, while both the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance and Michelin Primacy 3 delivered decent performances, the Michelin Primacy 3 appears to have a slight edge, based on its consistent top score in multiple tests.


The Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance didn't perform as well as the Primacy 3 in most tests, but it claimed a higher ranking in Autobild's test, indicating its potential to compete against other models in certain conditions.


In terms of upgrade, both manufacturers provide newer models, which promise improved performance and features. Therefore, if you consider purchasing one of these tyres, it might be worthwhile to also look into the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 and the Michelin Primacy 4.
